Thread: Trump Cancels Pelosi's Brussels Junket

  1. #31
    After President Donald J. Trump’s epic cancellation of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s trip abroad, he appears to have had her luggage, along with that of the Congessional delegation that was supposed to travel with her, delivered to her office in Congress.
    “Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s luggage has been returned to the halls of congress by cart, according to a picture sent to the Washington Free Beacon by a snap-happy tipster,” Free Beacon said.
    Here is the photo:

    All trips should be planned when congress is not in session. Funding should come from their budget. Airfare should be paid for from budget expenses also.

    HE just keeps getting funnier and funnier, and this was also a brutal counter-attack on Nancy.

    These cretins don't have the courage to fly commercial with no security detail. Weak MFers, just as I suspected, who deep down know they are hated. The coming hostilities may proceed better than I could imagine.

    Epic. That's really the only word to use for this masterful move. Good Lord! I don't think I've ever seen such a massive smack-down in the time I've been paying attention to politics.
    Left her stranded on the bus and had her luggage delivered to her office door.
    Pelosi thought she was above it all. That her position gave her anything she demanded.
    And then she tried to board a military jet that flies at the whim of the Commander-in-Chief.
    Kudos, Trump.

    Nobody should be leaving Washington during the shutdown. Trump said he would not leave town. "Flying to Iraq is just a PR stunt":. Trump has also flown to Texas and New Orleans during the shutdown.

    Trump And First Lady Make Secret Trip To Iraq To Visit U.S. Troops

    President Trump and first lady Melania Trump traveled to Iraq to visit U.S. troops on the day after Christmas, an unannounced trip about which the president nonetheless had been hinting for some time.

    The Trumps' arrival at Al Asad Air Base followed the president's recent orders to pull back on U.S. troop deployments elsewhere — orders that have come under intense scrutiny.

    The trip to Iraq was announced on Twitter by press secretary Sarah Sanders. It's the president's first such visit since taking office nearly two years ago.

    The president and the first lady spent about three hours at Al Asad, in western Iraq. Air Force One landed back at Joint Base Andrews outside of Washington, D.C. at 5:13 a.m. ET on Thursday.

    Melania flies Government Air for her vacation. Should she have taken a commercial flight to save money during the shutdown? Should she stay in Washington with her husband?

    First lady Melania flies to Florida on government jet after Trump postpones Speaker Nancy Pelosi's trip to Afghanistan due to shutdown

    First Lady Melania Trump flew to Florida on a government jet Thursday for a weekend vacation, hours after President Donald Trump dramatically postponed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's trip with other members of Congress to visit U.S. troops in Afghanistan, NBC confirmed, citing a law enforcement source.

    President Trump cited the ongoing government shutdown as his reason for postponing Pelosi's travel plans, shortly before she and her team were scheduled to depart on a military plane.

    While Pelosi was practically grounded by Trump's actions, the president's wife headed to Joint Base Andrews for her own trip on a military aircraft, NBC said.

    The first lady is expected to be in Florida for the holiday weekend at her family's private Mar-a-Lago resort, according to NBC, which reported that the president is set to stay in Washington.

    If I am not mistaken Trump has his own jet and enough money to send Melania anywhere she wants to go. I think I remember something about how he/they had to use government aircraft.
